Pumpkin Seeds Recipe Sweet Cinnamon

Pumpkin Seeds Recipe Sweet Cinnamon

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Diet: Gluten-Free, Vegetarian

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups raw pumpkin seeds (cleaned and dried)
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
  • 3 tablespoons granulated white sugar or brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
  2. Place the cleaned and dried pumpkin seeds in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
  3. Pour the melted butter (or coconut oil) and vanilla extract over the seeds. Toss them thoroughly until every seed is lightly coated.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the buttered seeds. Stir well to ensure an even coating on all seeds.
  6. Spread the seeds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Do not crowd them, as they need air to circulate to get crunchy.
  7. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes. Every 10 to 15 minutes, open the oven and stir the seeds with a spatula to ensure even browning.
  8. Remove the tray from the oven when the seeds are golden brown and feel crisp.
  9. Let the seeds cool completely on the tray. They will become even crispier as they cool down.
